Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the sucrose concentration is higher inside, the water will move into the tube, and the tube gets "stiffer;" if it's greater outside, the water will out of the tube, and it will get smaller. If the concentration is the same inside and outside, it will gain weight
